The Federal government's job is to invest in long term benefit for all citizens which is likely to pay off and can't be done (or trusted to) a single private company. Like the FAA. Like freeways. Like climate change. Just a reminder for fanbois of very limited government.

Wow, people who voted for Trump thought he was a successful business man. Not the guy who bankrupted 4 businesses and would 'stiff' (unlawfully not pay) suppliers and contractors.

The executive branch of government must abide by the laws Congress passes. And judges interpret those laws. That is one of the critical checks and balances of the American system. Duuuuuuuh.

I figured out why Zuck dismantled fact checking on Fb properties. He realized the Trump administration would turn it against actual facts. Fb would have to remove posts and accounts referring to J6 acts as sedition, for example. Better no fact checking than Trump's facts only. And, favor was curried

@adamserwer.bsky.social at best, children whose countries won't accept them could be covered by a carve out. Parents who lack resources to go to their home country? I am sure the racist republicans would fund flights. Anyway, i hope to see a followup about this massive number of stateless people.

@adamserwer.bsky.social i am all for calling out the racism, and calling out the ruling post ww2 that defined "under the authority of", but this claim of massive numbers of stateless people is everywhere now and i can't figure it out.

@adamserwer.bsky.social i am trying to understand an aspect of your article on birthright citizenship. You state that an underclass of stateless people will be created. But citizenship will come from the parent (jus sanguis). A majority of countries don't have birthright citizenship.

The changes made by executive order by Trump in the last few days were typically reserved for lawmakers. But with a broken legislative body since Obama, action has to be taken by the executive branch, and we accept this. A sad state of affairs.

Google mobile feature i want. Translate voice but someone speaking farther away. Like an announcement at an airport, or a public lecture, or a person at a restaurant explaining a dish, none of whom will get within inches of your phone and speak into it. @searchliaison.bsky.social (pls forward?)

@sammyroth.bsky.social How about an article on California's inflexible rate structures which don't take into account the new ways of generating electricity, and how they could change? Not talking about demand shedding, talking about pricing.

What is the reasonable and proportional response for frequent missile attacks and holding 100 hostages for a year? Asking for a friend.
